Why Butterfly?
As some of you would know, I’ve not always been the biggest fan of Butterfly equipment. It’s not that I don’t like their equipment, it’s just that I don’t approve of their ever increasing high prices, and their ‘sole distributor per region’ policy, which prevents any sort of fair competition. However I do think that their high-end range of equipment is of very high quality, among the best in the professional table tennis market, so perhaps this does deserve some premium. Although they clearly have the biggest budget for advertising and promotion of all the table tennis manufacturers, they do also sponsors the largest number of players, which is also beneficial to our sport.
So if a players decides they’re willing to pay a premium for the Butterfly brand, I won’t argue with them, and are happy to make recommendations from the Butterfly range that I’ve come to know better and better over time. If you need advice, just ask… I know the Butterfly range very well.
